DNF will have a DUKEMATCH, what characters should be useable and (if any) what abilitys should they have for example pig cops calling in pig air support or suck it downs with razerblade helichopper attacks.

Here's a question I have for everyone. Would you rather see a Dukematch in DNF that has Duke vs. Dukes or have the ability to select from multiple characters? I honestly wouldn't mind if it followed the same formula as the Dukematch in D3D would a few little additions here and there.

I wouldn't mind seeing vehicles in Dukematch either. After seeing the footage of the monster truck and the images of the RC car, it hit me that I would love to be able to cause vehicular mayhem in multiplayer!

Why can't Duke #2 just get some red pants for co-op? It would almost be a reference to older games, and Duke 3d. :P Most of them didn't have sidekicks for co-op, just different colored players.

yeah but two Duke's spouting out one liners at the same time? would be kind of weird, the more I think about this the more I think this game will break boundaries the way Duke3D did. Its quite possible that they do it this way, if thats the case, we should all friend each other on whatever console we're on right now so we're ready to play co-op together!

P.S. I've never cared enough about a game to play co-op with someone else before.

What was great about Dukematch in Duke3D was that it was so accessible and user friendly. It was like having an entire second game for free. There was always a great feel to it -- it had great atmosphere and sounds, just like single player.

Maybe it's cuz I'm still stuck on Build, but I doubt we'll see as much creativity with user maps as we did with Duke3D.

As long as there is not, Jump Shot's, Quick Scopes, No Scopes, Noobtubes, Teabagging and above all else.... No Freakin trash talking punk kids who think they are all badass because the talk trash on the mic.

ok for the Duke Hoard mode, you can call it invasion right... where u play a group of EDF troops fighting the Alien invasion. You can win bonuses like air strikes, ammo, or play Duke himself for a few minutes.

I just had a really good thought, I'll bet this is how it'll turn out: I think it will be a lot like Half Life 1, DNF will come out on its own, with barebones dukematch. Then within a year we'll get an expansion where you play as a soldier and can play co-op if you want. Then the next update will be all the multiplayer craziness.

From what I gather George B has been trying to puts as many cool features as possible into DNF that includes taking other peoples ideas and makeing them better, this is how we progress.
So things like curb stomps and maybe even a reward system should be on the cards, thats one of the reasons the game has been delayed, it has to set a new excellence bar as duke 3D did back in the day.
Also the box art should be a picture of duke standing over the crumpled bodies of master chief, the call of duty morons, alma, gordon freeman, and serious sam just like the boxart from duke3d where hes firing bullets into em for good measure....dnt like my spelling/grammer? eat shit and die.

Sounds good, another idea would be that you could actually call in the Duke himself sort of like an air strike but more powerfull and with £1.99 sunglasses and Dunnes stores/ K-Mart jeans.

Coop was 10x easier to do back in the day. Nowadays, the game has to be built with coop in mind, and then those games tend to suffer a bit gameplay wise when playing singleplayer.

But its when games like Doom 3 and Half-Life 2 have a good mod community that a really cool coop mod is released. That way, the developers of the game can focus more on making a kickass game, and the mod community makes the coop.
